Ricoh launches flagship colour printer
Announcement posted by Ricoh Australia 21 May 2003
Ricoh today launched the flagship of its colour laser printer range, the Aficio CL7000. Inhouse colour graphic printing has never been easier than with the CL7000, delivering high speed, superior quality images at an affordable price.
The CL7000 is ideally suited to the production of reports, newsletters, tailored proposals or customised flyers, and connects to just to about anything in the networked environment.
In a nutshell, the CL7000 is the fastest combination colour and black and white laser printer on the market (38ppm black and white, 28ppm in colour), printing in duplex virtually as fast as it does in simplex mode.
It provides fast and reliable printing, directly or over the network, courtesy of the 99 second warm-up time, 500 MHz processor and 480Mbit/second data transmission.
An exceptional 1200 dpi resolution ensures crisp image quality. Other outstanding features include a Black Over Print function that automatically corrects image shifts between dark print on a light background and RPCS, Ricohs speedy one click printer language that dramatically increases file transfer speeds and reduces network load. It even allows users to store their own personal colour settings.
While the competitively priced cost per page of the CL7000 has made colour printing much more affordable, Ricoh has gone one step further by enabling management to control the volume of colour printing through its built-in User Access Code. In this way, all office users can print in black and white, with colour reserved for those who need it. Colour printing usage can then be monitored via Ricohs bundled network device management software, SmartNetMonitor. As a final cost control measure, Ricoh offers the option of its Printer Cost Accounting software package that enables printing costs to be distributed on a user pays basis to each department.
The Ricoh CL7000s bundled software suites include DeskTopBinder V2 Lite, which offers document management and job binding to improve productivity. As well, Ricohs Web Status Monitor is a valuable document and management tool that checks the status, document server and paper/toner supply through common web browsers.
The CL7000 can operate in virtually any PC environment including USB1.1 and 2.0, IEEE1394, parallel and Ethernet 10 base-T/100 base TX. Optional Bluetooth and wireless LAN technology facilitate printing from mobile devices, including personal digital assistants, and effectively futureproof the CL7000.
Developed with performance, cost and versatility for the business graphic user in mind, the Aficio CL7000 network colour printer is ideal for medium to large workgroups and comes equipped with a complete range of paper handling and finishing options, as well as expandable paper capacity (up to 3,100 sheets).
The CL7000 is Ricohs fifth network colour printing solution released over the past three months. Ricoh now offers a total of nine network colour devices, a healthy range sure to position Ricoh as a leader within the burgeoning office colour printing market segment.
Ricoh Aficio products are available from specialists nationally.
